Seller states it's an antique persian rug, approximately 9x12 and asking $750...

So, what does the forum think???

looks like a possible mid century Persian bijar. If so, very, very good find provided good plus condition

Niice rug and good price, if it is ok. From the pictures I would say Merawan or maybe Lilian.

I actually agree now that I zoomed in on the back of the rug - it is single weft. Lilihan seems proper, good price still as KAD says if it is in good shape

An old Persian Bijar, I think. Very good price if there is no damage or repairs on it. A beautiful piece.

Thanks everyone; Rugfirm, what do you think of RugPro and KAD's assessment of it being single weft and a lilihan...i seem to agree, but obviously not an expert like you guys...

...and i think it's sold, so i guess we will never know...
